    A job i found

    I've been having sooo much trouble keeping jobs lately. I mean, i can't really keep up with everyone else, even though I work my butt off, so I keep getting "let go" (sigh) very frustrating. And I usually end up breaking down whenever I get fired, which is kind of embarrasing in front of...

    Anime

    I'm just wondering how many others like Anime. I love anime, I watch it all the time. My favorite shows are Trigun, Ruroni Kenshin, Haibane Renmei, and Cowboy Bebob, in that order. There are lots of good movies, too. Like Grave of the Fireflies or Princess Mononoke or Spirited Away or My...

    Headache soooo bad =-(

    Hey, everyone. I've been coughing so much lately, especially in the morning, I'm getting terrible headaches, and also the coughing takes up all my energy for the rest of the day. Nothing new, of course, but it's just been happening a lot lately and it's really discouraging. I was driving the...

    Commercials

    What are your favorite commercials on TV? I love the one where it shows some guy in a dry-cleaning place hanging from the dry cleaning machine. I forget what it's for, some bank, I think. But it's funny 'cause if I worked in a dry cleaning store, I'd probably be doing stuff like that, too...

    has anyone seen my voice?

    =-) 'cause i lost it. =-) It usually doesn't happen unless i'm sick, but my voice has been turning to crap lately for no apparent reason. It's really annoying, especially when i'm on the phone or something and people can't hear what I'm saying. I try to talk louder, but then it goes out...

    A bit awkward

    Does anyone else feel a little weird whenever someone comes on here finding out their child has CF. They're always saying how terrible it is and how devestating. Of course it is a bad thing, I'm not arguing about that, =-) it's just people say, "I have a child with cf, I'm so devestated...

    Superheroes! (and heroines!)

    I found this link on another forum, it's great! You take a quiz and see which superhero you match. most of them i've never heard of before, though. I am power fist! "honor, dedication, and most of all purity of heart!" Yayyyyy! =-) Even if the name is a little dumb. =-) <a target=new...

    Being adult

    This spawned form the pictures of us thread, I'm just making a new topic, 'cause immortal goddezz was right. =-) I dropped out of college, not married and probably never will be, and I have a part-time job that pays less than $120 a week. Since when is life about any of that crap? =-) And...

    Breathing pain

    Whenever i exercise anymore, it starts to hurt when i breathe. My doctor told me it's simply just some asthma-like symptoms and gave me a Albuterol inhaler which seemed to work. My question is, is there anything I could be doing to strengthen my lungs up... or something? Still not entirely...

    People doing reports

    Is it me, or are some people just really lazy. I'm usually happy to help someone out when they need to do a report on CF, but when they are asking questions that can easily be found on the main site as well as hundreds of other places, it gets a little tiring. If people are looking for...

    I hate Cipro!

    I'm just venting. =-) My doctors started me on Cipro again because I haven't been on it for so long and they think it will help. Since then, i have been sleepy all the time! i mean, I'm always tired, but now I can't keep my eyes open whenever I sit down. It's been cloudy though so I haven't...

    Vitamin K

    Hello, everyone. Does anyone know what Vitamin K does for the body? I took a nutrition class once, but I forgot what it does. Anyway, I'm asking because my doctor said I am very low on vitamin K. It is because my stupid insurance company decided they were not going to cover ADEK's anymore...

    Just moved to Denver

    Hello, everyone. I just moved to Denver, and I'm about to be making an appointment with the clinic. I'm just curious, how is it? The adult canter, that is. I heard before that they have a good program here, so I'm looking forward to it. Also, what kind of assistance programs are here in...

    Rib infection

    Hello, everyone. I was in the emergency room on Monday. It was really hurting to breathe, so a friend took me in. They said my lungs look fine, and they thought I had some sort of rib infection. Has anyone else heard of this? Anyway, it is not serious they told me and it should go away on...

    Hello, everyone. I've been having a lot of migranes lately. Has anyone ever had any migraines because of CF or because of a side effect from medication? It's not really important; I'm just wondering. Jarod22 with CF

    Falling asleep during TOBI

    Hello, everyone. Does anyone else have a problem with falling asleep while trying to breathe TOBI? Lately, I have. I don't think it has anything to do with the medication; at least, I've never heard of anything like that. What is probably going on is I'm just not getting enough sleep. I...

    I'm sure a lot of people can relate to this

    Hello. I am Jarod, 22 with CF. Obviously, I know what it is like to have CF, but I don't really think often enough about the people around me. This is a poem by Elinor Wylie (If you do not know who Elinor Wylie is, she has written a lot of great stuff; you should go to the library and check...

    CF Camp

    When I was a child, I used to go to a week-long camp every summer for CF patients. Unfotunately, I had to stop going because of the risk of cross-infection. I don't think they even run the camp anymore because the risk is just too high. What I am wondering is if there is anyone else out there...
